Emma nodded. “I do. You’ve seen the change in him yourself.”

I did. Every time we saw each other, he was very respectful and kind. He understood our need to keep a distance from him, and he never tried to cross any boundaries. He definitely wasn’t the same Nathan who came to my pack all those years ago.

Emma mumbled something I didn’t understand at all. I furrowed my eyebrows.

“I can’t understand you if you talk with a toothbrush in your mouth,” I said.

She took the toothbrush out of her mouth and spit out the toothpaste.

“I said that we needed to give him a second chance,” Emma said, making me sigh.

“I know,” I said. “I would do anything for my princess.”

My kids were the light of my life. I was so freaking proud of them both. Alexander was a wonderful young man and he was going to be a great Alpha soon. I knew that I was going to leave my pack in the hands of a kind and powerful Alpha.

My Sophie was my princess. She was my joy. She was my little girl and my love for her was endless. There was nothing I wouldn't do to keep her safe. There was nothing I wouldn't do to make her happy.

Emma finished brushing her teeth. She smiled at me and wrapped her arms around my waist. I caressed her cheek.

“I am going to get dressed,” she said softly as she placed a small kiss on my naked chest.

My whole body burned with need and I had to take a deep breath to calm down.

I watched Emma walk back into our bedroom when I got a mind-link from Andrew.

Is he here?He asked me.

Not yet.I said.He will be here in about two hours.

I rinsed my mouth and spit out the toothpaste.

Are you nervous?Andrew asked.

As fuck.I mumbled.

I splashed my face with cold water and took a deep breath.

Everything will be okay.Andrew sighed.We are doing this for Soph.

I looked at myself in the mirror. I watched my jaw twitch.

I know.I said.There is nothing I wouldn't do for her.

I just hoped that Nathan did change. I hoped that he would treat my daughter with respect. If he didn’t, nothing would fucking stop me from killing him this time.

CHAPTER TWENTY-NINE – Twenty

Sophia’s POV

I was nervous as hell.

I kept pacing around the living room and biting the skin around my nails.

Would his parents like me? Would they approve of me? What if they told him to reject me because of my darkness? Would he change his mind? Would he listen to them? What if he did end up rejecting me?

My heart was going a mile a minute. My palms were sweating and my breaths were short and fast.

Not being able to sleep last night didn’t help at all. The darkness was too much. It kept taunting me and trying to get me to use it. There was a weird feeling in my stomach. It was like hunger, but dull and persistent. It wasn’t the kind of hunger that could be satisfied with food. It was a hunger for magic.
